A candidate or officeholder may correct a report filed before September 12, 1997, to indicate an intent to reimburse himself or herself with interest for political expenditures from personal funds, as long as the political expenditures from personal funds and the intention to seek reimbursement for the expenditures were themselves timely reported. Although the Election Code does not prohibit the acceptance of a political contribution from a city, the Texas Constitution may prohibit the city from making such a contribution.
